A/HRC/14/36 right of women and girls not to be discriminated against and that upholds all their human rights. 64. Third, the independent expert will focus on the contribution of women and girls to the cultural development of communities they belong to, including their contribution to the development of common values of those communities, which is pivotal to the implementation of their cultural rights. 4. Cultural rights of persons with disabilities 65. The independent expert was also requested in resolution 10/23 of the Human Rights Council to integrate a disabilities perspective into her work (para. 9 (e)). She proposes to address this issue on the basis of article 30 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, and in full collaboration with the Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. 5. Cultural rights of non-nationals, in particular migrant workers and members of their families 66. As the number of migrant workers has grown steadily over the past decades, addressing the implementation of their cultural rights is an increasingly compelling issue. In various countries around the globe, debates are held on the rights and obligations of nonnationals, in particular migrant workers and members of their families. Such discussions are sometimes held in rather tense atmospheres, and involve issues relating to, inter alia, the integration or assimilation of non-nationals into the wider society, the principle of universality of human rights, and measures to be taken to respect or accommodate cultural diversity. As a first step, the independent expert proposes to explore how best to address such issues in full cooperation with the Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants and the Committee on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families. 20 GE.10-12440
